I worked with Fay at the Washington Hospital Center in the radiation therapy department from 1971-74. A more generous of spirit person, admired by all who worked with her and loved by her patients as you could ever find.

Fay,
Was taking care of my mother before this illness. She was a great care taker and help to both my parents. She is missed. Glad that I will see her again in Heaven.

I met Fay over 50 years ago at Washington Hospital Center when I was a student nurse. She always had such a positive outlook, was a truly kind, spiritual person & had a strong influence on me. She always put others first. I was so happy to see her again at our last WHC reunion. May God Bless you and help support you through this difficult time, and find comfort in knowing Fay is with our heavenly father and is at peace.
She will be missed.

Fay was very kind to me and my family. My daughter called her Fee Fee. She was very caring and a good listener. I often had heart to heart talks with her about sensitive issues in my life. Fay encouraged me and made me and my family feel loved.
